Oh I bet my bottom dollar that Taylor Swift will be played 50 years from now. Dylan is already almost complete unknown to anyone under 50.

My son is a purist. He listed 100 flaws in the movie in the 10 minutes it took to get home.

I think he took the deficiencies in the film personally.

I told him to give it up- it’s not his generation's music. It’s mine.

I have been singing Dylan in my head all night.

Unlikely that Taylor Swift will be played 50 years from now- but you can sure Bob will not be

A Complete Unknown.

That Stone will be rolling in my grandkids playlists.

My son showed up at dinnertime tonight and said "Dad, get in the car. I'm taking you back in time to your favorite music". We saw "A Complete Unknown" in a Mystic theater that has spectacular acoustics. Glad I did not wait to stream it on my small screen. The actor who plays Dylan is mesmerizing. And the music is my Sound of Happiness.

Heartily recommend.

Not for purists, but well done. Timothy Chalamet is the real thing.
